#### 21.3.2 Specifying Eclipse Help plug-in properties

The properties described here appear either as attributes of the <plugin> element in plugin.xml or as values of entries in MANIFEST.MF, depending on the setting for UseManifest (see §21.3.1 Specifying a Java manifest file for Eclipse Help):

Table 21-1 Eclipse Help properties in either MANIFEST.MF or plugin.xml

Property | Configuration setting | UseManifest=Yes | UseManifest=No
How/where to specify | MANIFEST.MF entry | <plugin> attribute

    version

Title

To specify a title for your Eclipse Help plug-in:

    [EclipseHelpOptions]
    ; PluginName = text used in <plugin> or manifest for name attribute
    PluginName = DITA2Go Eclipse Help

In MANIFEST.MF, this title becomes the Bundle-Name value. The default value is the base name of your.bookmap or .ditamap file.

ID

To specify a plug-in ID:

    [EclipseHelpOptions]
    ; PluginID = text used in <plugin> or manifest for id attribute
    PluginID = com.dita2go.help

The plug-in ID identifies your plug-in to other components of the Eclipse Platform. In MANIFEST.MF, this ID becomes the Bundle-SymbolicName value. The default value is com.dita2go.help.

Provider name

To specify the plug-in provider:

    [EclipseHelpOptions]
    ; PluginProvider = text used in <plugin> or manifest for provider-name
    ; attribute
    PluginProvider = dita2go.com

In MANIFEST.MF, the provider name becomes the Bundle-Vendor value. The default value is dita2go.com.

Product version

To specify the version of the product your Eclipse Help content is about (not to be confused with the Eclipse version):

    [EclipseHelpOptions]
    ; PluginVer = text used in <plugin> or manifest for version attribute
    PluginVer = 1.0

In MANIFEST.MF, this version number becomes the Bundle-Version value. The default value of PluginVer is 1.0.
